THIS DECADE By Ojonuma Miachi Abiamuwe

It is not news that we are in a new decade, it is in the line of the radio presenter, the talk show host, the preacher, the motivational speaker and on most quotes we have come across since the beginning of this new decade.

For the sake of clarity, a decade is simply 10 years. Is it okay to say that a 70 years old man has had 7 decades? Yes. Many people are blessed to live beyond that and many more especially in the under developed world do not get the opportunity to live up to 7 decades.

How have the decades been so far? Okay... Let’s pause and think about it. How many decades have you had so far? What have you done with the decades you have been graciously given by GOD? The answer is yours to know.

For some, they began to fulfill destiny in their first decade and run with it through all the decades, some start in their second, some third and so on but some never start at all because they do not realize that as each year passes, decades role by.

This New decade maybe what is left in the afternoon to some and they must be deliberate about it. Think about your present age, add 10 years to it... YES that’s is this decade, what do you want to achieve in this decade? Begin...

Do you want to take life more seriously? Do you want to be deliberate about your decisions, do you want to start the course, that business, that investment, that family, that forgotten dream? Or do you want to joke with this decade? Remember, this decade is your age plus 10.  Will you have the same strength, vigor,will, passion, by the end of this decade? The answer is No.

This article is not intended to scare you but to draw you to the place of purposeful thinking, to spore you to destiny, to bring our attention home from all the empty life of wanting to impress people to actually fulfilling life’s purpose and dreams so that at the end of your many decades here on earth, the earth will know that you passed through, heaven will be proud and you will be happy.
